I don't think DoTs work. The enfeebles have to be slow, paralyze, blind, elegy etc. I don't know about absorb spells. BRD with pining nocturne and elegy seemed to trigger it every time. BLMs were casting slow, para, and blind, but they were resisted occasionally.

[Byrthnoth]

Our Mandau THF triggered it twice while we were zerging, so DoTs can work.

[Modoru]

My only Tax'et runs we just did Dia+Helix+Elegy, and that worked like a charm.

The peiste is easily doable in 4 minutes... Rotate brds, cor buffs, 2 hours, keep it blind and go to town. Should die in less than 5 minutes.

Need a pld just in case? trying to figure out how much support DDs, etc.

Atm have a fuckton of DDs, 2 whms, a rdm, 3 brds, a cor, with 4 slots to fill

Any suggestions?

Do we know if the shield or alternator can mezzotinted?

Alternator cannot. I remember hearing that the shield had a unique augment set, like HP? Pretty sure it was earlier in this thread but not entirely certain.


Anyone have any word on fracture plasm farming? Is it still 50 per fodder mob, or is it lower now? Does only the boss wall stay up until NMs are killed or do no walls go down without any NM killed?

No PLD, have competent support for bind spam, make sure your DDs are actually good.

Stack everyone in the crevice in the wall by the ??? and the bind won't be an issue. If you can stun Calcifying Mist, great. If not, just make sure your mages know when to Stona.

[Cream Soda]

What move needs to be stunned btw?

Edit: nvm I see the post above

[Yeager]

Doing a Ceizak fracture now. Mobs still giving 50 plasm per kill. I'm in the tank party, so I can't see how much of the area is readily available for fodder mob spawns.

What move needs to be stunned btw?

Calcifying mist is AoE gradual petrify, its useful to stun it but even if you don't just make sure whms/rdm/sch/brds all stona DDs immediately after the petrify actually happens. Spells aren't really worth stunning, thundaja was doing low damage when spread across 6 DDs.

[TummieGaruda]

No PLD, have competent support for bind spam, make sure your DDs are actually good.

So something like:

DD, DD, DD, BRD, COR, WHM
DD, DD, DD, BRD, COR, WHM
RDM(Blind), SCH/BLM(stun), WHM, DD, DD

Or fill the last party with a mix of RDMs and Stunners for support?

[Obsidian]

That was basically our setup last night, except the last party was SCH RDM PLD (me) BRD and I'm not even sure what the last two were (mages of some sort I'm pretty sure). Rotated bards before popping, didn't rotate again though. Blind it off the bat and go to town.

[Kaces]

DD, DD, DD, BRD, COR, WHM

Looks perfect, super overkill if those DDs are worth anything. We had 8 in ours and only 5 managed over 10%.

Went thru my logs to pull the parse: Kennnie 115321(20.7%), Taint 101981(18.3%), Kacez 92383(16.6%), Eanae 87826(15.7%), Sarlazzar 64027(11.5%).
Delve GA, Delve GK, RAG, Delve GK, Someguy. Kill time 4:11.

Ok, we just finished our Fracture run. We got 4000 plasm, so it's still decent.

[Fondue]

I asked earlier if anyone tried wsing chapuli during casting aga/t5 etc if it wouldnt cause it to use medallion, nobody?

I think you misunderstand, we dont bring blms to anything > have try dds ws while the chapuli is casting nukes

[NynJa]

When i did chapuli, we had someone nuking, but i couldt tell if the meditations were counters or natural TP selection. Fighting regular chapulis, i remember some meditation counters to heavy nukes. Just have you mages use lower tier nukes.

[Damane]

heads up the jagil/pugil in fractur Foret is bugged. got 2.5k enspell dmg in a matter of 3 min. called GM who confirmed its a bug.

[dasva]

Seems to me that all the debuffs contribute to a chance to use exuv but not necessarily equally. And that possibly same debuff from different sources seem to weight differently as well. From what I'm reading seems everyone who also used a bit of non magic sources like weapons or ws fared better. That seem right?

[dasva]

I haven't fought delve grasshopper but normal ones seemed to not use move if stunned during the whole part of the ws. From readying to dmg. Maybe time ws with a long stun/terror?
